Fostering Environmental Stewardship of the Gulf of Mexico: A Trans-Boundary Network of Water Education and Monitoring for Animal Producers, Classrooms and Community Volunteers

This Environmental Education project will teach animal producers, middle/high school teachers and students, and volunteer water monitors about Gulf issues, water protection and monitoring. The project will be implemented throughout Gulf watersheds in Alabama and Veracruz, Mexico. A series of water monitoring workshops, study tours, online EE Directory and two conferences will educate the target audiences and broader Gulf community. EPA-approved protocols will be used and all data will be stored, analyzed and shared online.
